BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana Head Basketball Coach Kelvin Sampson is opening
the Hoosiers' Nov. 2 practice to IU students. Practice begins at 4 p.m. at
Branch McCracken Court at Assembly Hall. Students should enter the arena
through the south loge doors or the north loge doors and sit in the west
stands.

More than 14,000 fans saw IU officially tip off the season at Hoosier
Hysteria on Oct. 13, and Sampson welcomes another opportunity to showcase
the program to the students.

"On behalf of our staff and team, we sincerely thank the fans for the
incredible reception that they gave our team at Hoosier Hysteria," Sampson
said. "When you have 13 new guys to coach, there has been a lot of teaching
the last two weeks. Our players will compete their hearts out every single
night. IU students, alumni and fans have an unbelievable passion for this
program and deserve nothing less."
